re: I just read Kevin Costner turned down the Andy role in Shawshank for Waterworld

Costner would have done well with this material. But when I saw Shawshank Redemption as a young man I wasn’t familiar with Tim Robbins.
With Costner as the lead I would have already had a feeling he would come out on top in the end. Robbins portrayal of Andy was so unassuming and timid I began to lose hope for him.

In what way was Dufresne ever timid? He was stoic from start in spite of being an innocent man with a very promising future stripped away (which is a more traumatic deal than a typical inmate experiences), took no shite from Boggs, openly defied the guards once, and was well respected by the other inmates.
What was he supposed to do, run around screaming and beating his chest? Win 3-on-1 fights against the Sisters? Tell Captain Hadley to go frick himself just for the hell of it?
